Ska Tribute Bands: Ska Wars

Ska Wars are one of the coolest Ska tribute bands in the UK today. This is an exciting 7 piece live band with young and very talented musicians. The frontman is extremely charismatic and never fails to deliver. This amazing band will have you up and dancing to the 2 tone classics of Madness, The Specials, Bad Manners and The Selector. Ska Wars even pay tribute to the roots of Ska itself with songs by Desmond Dekker, Toot and The Maytals and The Upsetters.

All members of the band have degrees in music and do freelance work as session players, music teachers and composers. You can tell from this background that Ska Wars are no ordinary Ska tribute band. A very experienced band with a great future ahead of them.

Ska Wars have a top of the range sound system, stage lighting and an eye catching backdrop. They travel extensively and are available for work all over Europe.

“There’s nothing like a good bit of Ska to get a festival started and mainstage openers ‘Ska Wars’ really know what a good bit of Ska is. Resplendent in two-tone and a kilt no less, Ska Wars look the part as well as sounding it. Once we’d got the expected nod from Lucas film (well what would you expect from Skarth Vader and Ska-2-d-2?), Ska Wars really took off. Good old school Ska with all the trimmings (the influence of Madness and The Specials shining through), which was performed quite frankly…masterfully. I couldn’t see a person within 100 yards not skanking. After a blinding set, frontman Bobba Fatt left the stage after addressing the crowd pontifical style “bless you, bless you”, and went to a galaxy far, far away” – Guilfest

“Just got back from the Liverpool music fest and decided this should be the first band of the day to watch and start off the festival at the super Lambanana stage. Well what can I say…all those that did not go to this stage missed one of the best band performances of the festival, they are V-entertaining. They sound spot on, the guys gave a really lively performance. The front man how he’s not collapsed yet with exhaustion gotta say hope to see these guys back again next year, as for me I was front/centre of stage man in the hat dancing loving it with four other family guys you guys have gotta kept up the great work from a two tone/ska/madness fan” – James McGuffie

Customer Comments

"We booked Abba through your agency and we just have to send a resounding "WOW" for such a fabulous afternoon. We are a centre for adults with learning disabilities and many friends were invited along to boogie on down. What a fabulous tribute band Counterfeit Abba were, close your eyes and it could have been them! The vocals, instruments and effects made it such a wonderful experience for all. Everyone was up and dancing all afternoon and the 'girls' kindly posed for photographs afterwards. Many thanks for such a memorable time" - Anne Brown (Chadwell Centre Instructor)

"I would just like to thank you very much for yet another fantastic night. We thought that we would struggle to top the evening we had last year with the Bee Gees tribute band, but you did it again. The Bohemians were absolutely fantastic, highly professional and we would strongly recommend them to any of your clients. Thank you once again, we put our full trust in your recommendation and again you came up trumps! Thank you for a truly super tribute band. I will be in touch soon to select our next act" - Niki Scott (Kington Festival)

"Thanks for supplying last nights tribute artistes Harry Crawley [Dean Martin] & The Counterfeit Bee Gees. The Bee Gees have been here numerous times and if one can say it, they are stunning and must be the closest to the original Bee Gees that one can get, their harmonies are out of this world, the stage show with the lights are mind blowing. Joe, Dan and John should be rightly proud of their Bee Gees tribute band, they should be on the top of any bookers list and for what they do, are very modestly priced. On behalf of our patrons please pass on our thanks and appreciation for the fantastic show, come back soon, please!" - Ken Wilshaw (Cobridge Coronation)

"The time has sadly come when I must leave the appointment of Regimental Corporal Major of the AFV Gunnery School here in Lulworth, Dorset. I felt I must write a letter of thanks to you and your team for all the great evening parties that I have had in my Warrant Officer's and Sergeant's Mess. For the last five years I have used Tribute Band Reviews for all of my entertainment needs, comedians, casino's, discos and in particular tribute acts. I have never been let down in any way. The quality has always been the best that is out there on offer. You have been solid and reliable every time and I thank you for your guidance and perseverance to find the right act for the right price. Every act, of which there have been many have always been on time, friendly, polite and totally professional. To name only a few, Donald Smith Casino, Pleasure Dome Disco, Mission Blue (twice or more) comedian Gil Morris, Fred Gardner as Frank Sinatra, Tasha Leaper as Madonna, Michael Duble as Michael Buble, Irish Band J.J. Galway plus many more. It goes without saying that I will continue to recommend you to others who want first class entertainment. Once again thank you for everything and if I ever end up in a line of work that requires me to book entertainment I won’t hesitate to be back on the phone to you" – Kieran Fortune
